...... interesting, in more ways than one .....
This is the second thread in the Toronto forum section where I noticed people in in Toronto are identifying with, and comparing their city with, places in the Eastern USA.
Hey, not a problem, but simply an evdence that the geographic proximity of the Eastern USA exerts a powerful influence on the way Torontonians - and other Canadians in the east
see themselves.
As I remarked in the "Toronto and Queens, NY" (sic) thread, in Vancouver we take a lot of cues from San Francisco and Seattle, and people here often visit there venturing back east
as is the case with my family.
It seems part of the nebulosity of the Canadian identity.
